    Dear Colleagues,<br>
    <br>
    Below is the response from our Counsel regarding Izumi's questions
    certified as #81. <br>
    <br>
    The questions were : <br>
    -Under the MEM proposed by ICANN, who exactly and on which<br>
    basis has theright to commence proceedings in order to enforce the<br>
    binding arbitration?<br>
    -Should SO/ACs be unincorporated associations? Should SO/ACs<br>
    give power of attorney to their chairs or one of their member?<br>

                    &gt; Thanks Sam for this information.<br>
                    &gt; <br>
                    &gt; I also have a follow up question and would be
                    interested to hear the CCWG lawyers' (Sidley Austin
                    and Adler Colvin) view on this.<br>
                    &gt; <br>
                    &gt; Under the MEM proposed by ICANN, who exactly
                    and on which basis has the<br>
                    &gt; right to commence proceedings in order to
                    enforce the binding arbitration?<br>
                    &gt; <br>
                    &gt; Should SO/ACs be unincorporated associations?
                    Should SO/ACs give power<br>
                    &gt; of attorney to their chairs or one of their
                    member?<br>
                    &gt; <br>
                    &gt; I would appreciate some clarification on this

                    &gt;&gt; "Specifically, under the Board’s Proposal,
                    the decision could be enforced by an unincorporated
                    association comprised of: (i) an individual
                    participating SO/AC or some grouping of

                    &gt;&gt;&gt; As Holly noted in her cover email, CCWG
                    Counsel's "Comparison of Independent Review

                    the attached memorandum for CCWG Counsel's

                    forth in the attached Jones Day memo.  Sidley/Adler
                    understood that this memo would be shared with the
